I have a very thick shag rug that clumps. Do you think this rake would help with that?

My husband uses the carpet rake on our mostly "Saxony" style carpets and he says there is a lot of "resistance." He thinks this carpet rake would get stuck in a shag rug.

I am not quite sure. My carpet is a relatively short pile and it lifts it up nicely. I suspect that it would work fine with a deeper pile due to the fact that the teeth on the groomer are approximately 1-1/2 inches long.

Not sure if it would work for dog hair in a shag- I had that same issue & finally just got rid of the rug. I bought the broom to use in a hair salon & it works great for that. Someone had recommended a shop vac for the rug.

No, I don't think that would work. The plastic - on the rake - just breaks in half. If the poop is frozen the rake just isn't strong enough to push it. If you live in a mild climate you might be fine. But I still recommend it. Once the rake breaks just go to the hardware store and buy a different one. This is the best dog poop picker upper ever.

have not tried that yet, good on leaves in tight garden spots. Id say get a regular rake for grass.

I don't have a fancy rug like that. I do have a shag rug and it works good on that. It lifts it up and makes it look better.

I would say, "no"....this is basically a tool for lifting the carpet pile. It doesn't pick up anything. I use it when I apply dry cleaning powder to rake it in. My son uses his to rake pet hair before vacuuming.

well you would get it done faster with this rake. I use it on a 150+ Saint Bernard and LOVE IT. Best rake I have ever owned. I think they make a smaller one but these aren't huge to begin with.edit - I checked this is the only size they make. it is great and easy to clean - I would get it.

Probably not. It works great on hardwood, and my lower berber-type carpet. It doesn't have the juice to pick up larger items, so I wouldn't think it would have the juice to get stuff in tall shag. Mine fills up with crumbs and dog hair....for that and it's ease-of-use it is perfect.

Yes, but my carpets are Berber. I don't know if it would work well on thicker pile carpets

I think so. It does better on rugs than hardwood or tile. I have swept sand up no problem.

I think that would work - just use the "smooth" side of the rake (turn it upside down)

This rake is for low nap shag carpets like frenzies. Would not recommend for Berber because it would make the loops fuzzy. It's just like a comb fluffing up carpets fibers.

We've got short loop shag carpet and the Perky Groomer carpet rake works good. We have 2 Golden Retrievers that shed and the Perky Groomer does a good job of pulling up the their hair so that when we vacuum it pretty much gets it all up. I don't think it would harm or do any damage to your berber carpet. Bill S.

No. The brushroller does not have enough power for thicker carpets, and will likely stop. You may get it to work a little bit if you go really slow.

This should pop all those crumbs to the surface so your Dyson can pick them up...rack before vacuuming. I do not have shag nor do I have pets, I purchased the Groom to lift the carpet in heavy traffic areas and it works beautifully.

If the carpet is thin, then yes. If the carpet is thick, then I would consider a larger vacuum with more suction power.

I have a relatively thick area rug and it pulls a lot of crud out of it, dogs and kids have each left their mark. Also, while it does clean well it doesn't leave the rug wet enough to impact the hard wood underneath. I'd agree with the concerns on the volume in both the soapy water tank and the discard tank, but both are necessary to make this product so versatile.
